🔹Having a whale of a time - To have a very fun and exciting time

Example: Tell me about your hometown.
Well, I’m from London which is a world-renowned city for its history and culture. They say he who is bored of London is bored of life! There is so much to do here that you are guaranteed to have a whale of time if you visit.
______________

🔹On cloud nine – very happy and joyful

Example: Do you like your job?
I must say that I adore my job and all the people that work there. It is a pleasure to go to work there each morning. I feel content with my life at the moment and I am on cloud nine.
______________

🔹On top of the world – feeling amazing, wonderful, ecstatic

Example: Is art popular in your country?
Yes, I would say that art is highly popular in my nation. Art has the power to unite us and express feelings that we cannot with words alone. When I look at my absolute favourite piece of art, “starry night” by Vincent Van Gogh I feel inspired and on top of the world. It shows me true beauty and that I believe is why art is so popular.
______________

🔹Over the moon – extremely pleased and happy

Example: What did you do on your last birthday?
On my last birthday I went to Paris with my girlfriend. It was an incredible city and the food was to die for! The trip was actually a surprise and when my girlfriend told me I was over the moon.
______________

🔹Like a dog with two tails – Dogs express happiness through wagging their tails. Therefore, a dog with two tails must be very happy!

Example: Who is your best friend?
My best friend is called Matthew. We have known each other since we were children. Every time I see him, I’m like a dog with two tails.

TRUE/FALSE/NOT GIVEN QUESTIONS: TRICKY QUESTIONS THAT THE MAJORITY OF STUDENTS ANSWER INCORRECTLY AND LOSE MARKS



Some time ago we made a quiz story on Instagram. And the results we got were really unexpected. Can you imagine? 😱 96 out of 111 of students (86%) answered incorrectly! Let's analyze the task.


QUESTION 1:

First, let's try to understand the meaning of the statement.

Question: John didn't have enough money to buy a car. So he took a loan at the bank. What does this mean? This means that John didn't have his own money. So he borrowed the money to buy a car at the bank. This statement is more or less clear to everybody and requires no further explanation.



What does the reading passage say?

Reading passage: John didn't have enough money to buy a car. So he considered an opportunity of taking a loan. This sentence confused 86% of the students who took part in the quiz. What does this sentence mean? We should focus on the expression 'consider an opportunity'. If you consider an opportunity of doing something, you just weigh all pros and cons. You just think about the good and bad parts of some decision. And after that people make a decision TO DO something or NOT TO DO this. The reading passage tells us that John considered an opportunity of taking a loan. But we don't know whether John decided to take a loan or not. Imagine someone offered you a job. And you said 'Thanks. I will consider your offer' What does it mean? It means you'll think about this offer, but even if you promise to think about it, it doesn't guarantee that you will accept this offer. That's why the answer is 'NOT GIVEN'.

QUESTION 2:
The next day we changed the wording a little and made another quiz on Instagram. Much to our surprise, 61 out of 96 (63%) students answered this question incorrectly. Here it is.

Question: John didn't have enough money to buy a car. So he took a loan at the bank. The question is the same as the first one. But read the passage very carefully.

Reading passage: John considered an opportunity of taking a loan, but he quickly realized that he wouldn't be able to provide all the necessary documents for the bank to approve his loan application. We know from the reading passage that John wanted to take a loan. He weighed all pros and cons. As a result, he understood that taking a loan is impossible because he doesn't have all the necessary documents. So it is obvious that he DID NOT take a loan. That's why the answer is 'FALSE'.

FUTURE CONTINUOUS

📌 FORM
The future continuous is made up of two elements:
the simple future of the verb 'to be' + the present participle (base+ing)

📌 FUNCTIONS

The future continuous refers to an unfinished action or event that will be in progress at a time later than now. The future continuous is used for quite a few different purposes.

📌 The future continuous can be used to project ourselves into the future.
For example: Just think, next Monday you will be working in your new job.

📌 The future continuous can be used for predicting or guessing about future events.
For example: I guess you'll be feeling thirsty after working in the sun.

📌 In the interrogative form, the future continuous can be used to ask politely for information about the future.
For example: Will you be bringing your friend to the pub tonight?

📌 The future continuous can be used to refer to continuous events that we expect to happen in the future.
For example: I'll be eating with Jane this evening so I can tell her.

📌 When combined with still, the future continuous refers to events that are already happening now and that we expect to continue some time into the future.
For example: In an hour I'll still be ironing my clothes.

PRESENT PERFECT
The present perfect is a verb tense which is used to show that an action has taken place once or many times before now. The present perfect is most frequently used to talk about experiences or changes that have taken place, but there are other less common uses as well. Read on for detailed descriptions, examples, and present perfect exercises.

🔹FORM
The present perfect is formed using has/have + past participle. Questions are indicated by inverting the subject and has/have. Negatives are made with not.
Statement: You have seen that movie many times.
Question: Have you seen that movie many times?
Negative: You have not seen that movie many times.

PRESENT PERFECT USES

🔹 Unspecified Time Before Now
We use the present perfect to say that an action happened at an unspecified time before now. The exact time is not important. You CANNOT use the present perfect with specific time expressions such as: yesterday, one year ago, last week, when I was a child, when I lived in Japan, at that moment, that day, one day, etc. We CAN use the present perfect with unspecific expressions such as: ever, never, once, many times, several times, before, so far, already, yet, etc.
Examples:
I have seen that movie twenty times.
I think I have met him once before.

🔹 Experience
You can use the present perfect to describe your experience. It is like saying, "I have the experience of..." You can also use this tense to say that you have never had a certain experience. The present perfect is NOT used to describe a specific event.
Examples:
I have been to France.
This sentence means that you have had the experience of being in France. Maybe you have been there once, or several times.

🔹 Accomplishments
We often use the present perfect to list the accomplishments of individuals and humanity. You cannot mention a specific time.
Examples:
Man has walked on the Moon.
Our son has learned how to read.

🔹 An Uncompleted Action You Are Expecting
We often use the present perfect to say that an action which we expected has not happened. Using the present perfect suggests that we are still waiting for the action to happen.
Examples:
James has not finished his homework yet.
Susan hasn't mastered Japanese, but she can communicate.
Bill has still not arrived.
The rain hasn't stopped.

🔹 Multiple Actions at Different Times
We also use the present perfect to talk about several different actions which have occurred in the past at different times. Present perfect suggests the process is not complete and more actions are possible.
Examples:
The army has attacked that city five times.
I have had four quizzes and five tests so far this semester.
We have had many major problems while working on this project.
She has talked to several specialists about her problem, but nobody knows why she is sick.


🔹 Time Expressions with Present Perfect
When we use the present perfect it means that something has happened at some point in our lives before now. Remember, the exact time the action happened is not important.We can do this with expressions such as: in the last week, in the last year, this week, this month, so far, up to now, etc.
Examples:
Have you been to Mexico in the last year?
I have seen that movie six times in the last month.
They have had three tests in the last week.

🔹 Duration From the Past Until Now (Non-Continuous Verbs)
With non-continuous verbs and non-continuous uses of mixed verbs, we use the present perfect to show that something started in the past and has continued up until now. "For five minutes," "for two weeks," and "since Tuesday" are all durations which can be used with the present perfect.
Examples:
I have had a cold for two weeks.
She has been in England for six months.
Mary has loved chocolate since she was a little girl.

PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS
The present perfect continuous (also called present perfect progressive) is a verb tense which is used to show that an action started in the past and has continued up to the present moment. The present perfect continuous usually emphasizes duration, or the amount of time that an action has been taking place. Read on for detailed descriptions, examples, and present perfect continuous exercises.

FORMS
The present perfect continuous is formed using has/have + been + present participle. Questions are indicated by inverting the subject and has/have. Negatives are made with not.
Statement: You have been waiting here for two hours.
Question: Have you been waiting here for two hours?
Negative: You have not been waiting here for two hours.
Complete List of Present Perfect Continuous Forms

PRESENT PERFECT CONTINOUS USES

🔹 1. Duration from the Past Until Now
We use the present perfect continuous to show that something started in the past and has continued up until now. "For five minutes," "for two weeks," and "since Tuesday" are all durations which can be used with the present perfect continuous.
Examples:
They have been talking for the last hour.
She has been working at that company for three years.
What have you been doing for the last 30 minutes?

🔹 2. Recently, Lately
You can also use the present perfect continuous WITHOUT a duration such as "for two weeks." Without the duration, the tense has a more general meaning of "lately." We often use the words "lately" or "recently" to emphasize this meaning.
Examples:
Recently, I have been feeling really tired.
She has been watching too much television lately.
Have you been exercising lately?

🔹 3. Non-Continuous Verbs/ Mixed Verbs
It is important to remember that non-continuous verbs cannot be used in any continuous tenses. Also, certain non-continuous meanings for mixed verbs cannot be used in continuous tenses. Instead of using present perfect continuous with these verbs, you must use present perfect.
Examples:
Sam has been having his car for two years. Not Correct
Sam has had his car for two years. Correct

🔹 4. ADVERB PLACEMENT
The examples below show the placement for grammar adverbs such as: always, only, never, ever, still, just, etc.
Examples:
You have only been waiting here for one hour.
Have you only been waiting here for one hour?

🔹 5. ACTIVE / PASSIVE
Examples:
Recently, John has been doing the work. Active
Recently, the work has been being done by John. Passive

❗️ NOTE: Present perfect continuous is less commonly used in its passive form.
